  Social Theory - Key Ideas and...

  Social theory provides a framework for understanding how societies function, how individuals interact, and how social structures shape human behavior. It encompasses a wide range of perspectives that seek to explain social order, change, and the relationships between individuals and institutions. By analyzing patterns in human behavior, power dynamics, and cultural influences, social theory helps us interpret the complexities of the modern world. Sociologists use these theories to examine issues such as inequality, globalization, identity, and technological change, offering insights that inform public policy, activism, and everyday life. 
  The origins of social theory can be traced back to early philosophical inquiries about society, morality, and governance. Thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, and Confucius considered questions about justice, social order, and the ideal state. However, modern social theory emerged during the 19th and early 20th centuries in response to major social transformations such as industrialization, urbanization, and political revolutions. Pioneering sociologists, including Karl Marx, Emile Durkheim, and Max Weber, developed foundational theories to explain the impact of these changes on social life. Their work laid the groundwork for various theoretical traditions that continue to shape sociological inquiry today. 
  Social theories can be broadly categorized into macro and micro perspectives. Macro-level theories, such as structural functionalism and conflict theory, focus on large-scale social structures and institutions. These perspectives analyze how societies maintain stability, how power is distributed, and how systemic inequalities emerge. Micro-level theories, such as symbolic interactionism, examine individual interactions and the meanings people attach to their experiences. These approaches emphasize the role of language, symbols, and everyday social interactions in shaping identity and behavior.

While to the general public addiction may seem almost inescapable, the truth is that there are solutions to overcoming the various addictions, though to date they seem more elusive than attainable. The goal of Escaping Addiction is to highlight the variety of causes of addiction alongside an array of useful tools anyone can use to break the cycle of addiction, whether it’s to alcohol, drugs, food, or video games.

Detaching the rewards from the addictive input is key to breaking the habits that keep us addicted. Presented here are a variety of treatments—from medications to therapeutic approaches—that can help. Offering a better understanding of the mechanisms of addiction, this book can help anyone struggling with addiction to unravel it in their own lives.

  An Evil Shadow Falls'By Wise Guidance, you can wage your war'The Sam Holloway TrilogyAn Evil Shadow Falls is the final part of the Sam Holloway trilogy, in which the former Special Forces officer and her team of warrior contractors face their most dangerous mission yet, in a wild adventure that starts in London and ends in armed intervention and death on the high seas. A nuclear warhead had gone missing and a terrorist mastermind, inspired by the events of 9/11 and a fanatical vision of Armageddon is planning a mass-casualty attack against the West that can only be measured in the metrics of madness. The Security and Intelligence agencies must make sense of a complicated jigsaw puzzle of clues, technical intercepts, source reports, and inputs from foreign intelligence services if they are to prevent Ground Zero 2. In a race against time, Sam's team, now including an unlikely ally, a refugee from London's postcode drug wars, and an MI5 agent within ISIS must find the deadly device before it detonates. The last book in the Samantha Holloway series starts in London, has its back story in the wild mountains of Afghanistan, and ends on a stormy night in the mid-Atlantic, with the Special Boat Service on standby and ready to deploy from a Royal Navy warship in support of the Spartan team. But even the best-laid plans rarely survive contact with the enemy, and the team must draw on all their combined skills and courage if they are to thwart a murderous plot that carries with it a horrifying echo of an all-too-possible future reality.***** Brilliant, been there, done that, Delaney nails the authenticity once again...'***** An audible treat that had me hooked to the end...'***** The action races off the page!***** Wow!! What a cracking story!***** This is essentially a ‘rattling good yarn’, a highly topical good vs evil adventure story, fast-paced and packed with incident.
